How can programmers use their technology to earn more than just their salary?

Taking on private work and earning extra money is faster than developing a software to add ads and earning income through clicks. However, this kind of product is very difficult for people who are not working full-time for personal development. Because most of the private job providers are some non-Internet people, let alone some technical personnel, so they only have ideas, that is, ideas, and only a general framework for how to do it, and it is very difficult to get to the details.

Moreover, the general private work provider requires Android and iOS to do it together, which also requires individual developers to be specific to these two technologies or a small team, or have buddies to work with you. And after the private work is accepted, you also need to pay attention to the "after-sales service" they require, that is, if there is a problem with the follow-up software, you also need to solve it. Talking about contracts and detailed rules, these need to be clarified and explained.

For me, the extra income as a programmer is, of course, to take on private work, and I have nearly 3w of private income so far. The main way is to outsource**, and then in the group, if you add the group, there are still a lot of opportunities, as long as the chat is good, you can still make money. The main problem is that the money given is generally small, and there are many requirements, and the process is not standardized, which makes it very uncomfortable to develop.

Personally, I don't recommend wasting time by borrowing too many private jobs, because most of the private jobs are manual work and do business functions. If you have a lot of free time, it's best to use it to improve yourself, learn more new techniques, and increase your depth and breadth.

It will not be difficult for programmers to develop this thing, but it will not be difficult, maybe you will be the result of a few days of needlework by others. I had the opportunity to help someone solve a problem, and they directly rewarded 500 yuan, oh my God! It's just a few simple ways to get it wrong.

Of course, the above methods are not a good choice, you can only make some small money, the best way for programmers to make money is to do side projects, do consulting, do ** tutorials, write articles and write tutorials, etc.

Help people do graduation projects, this is more fun, I was more idle for a while, I saw someone in the post bar to do a graduation project, so I helped them do it for free, and after the end of the result, people directly rewarded 200 yuan red envelopes, so I found that this may be a good choice. The students' graduation project is relatively simple, and it can be completed in an afternoon with low requirements. Later, I took on some graduation design work seriously, and the highest unit price was 1200, but the off-season of this business was too long, and there were jobs from April to July a year.

You can do consulting work, make money by chatting with people, and you can provide solutions or implementation plans for some companies more professionally, of course, this requires you to have a certain amount of technology and be well-known in the circle.

I am through friends or online to take some orders to do, can be able to make money, but too tired, and very troublesome, if it is an office worker recommended not to take orders, will be your physical and mental exhaustion, especially friends recommend the list is more troublesome, obviously talk about the good demand, and later there are requirements for various changes, and are unified caliber, this is very simple! If only you could help me change it! The simple features also take time to get around, and you still have your own work.

What I like the most is to write tutorials and articles, I'm trying, just last month my personal ** was officially launched, and I also wrote some articles to publish, and some articles were plagiarized and posted to platforms such as Baijiahao. You can write articles and tutorials for submission and get a fee, or you can post them on your own blog to get a boost to your personal brand. In addition, it helps to exercise one's logical thinking ability, and can also strengthen the memory of knowledge points.

The program itself is a tool, and taking on the outside work or being a tool for others is like never being able to write the extracurricular dishes into the resume, and always thinking about programming can never improve to a higher level. To achieve income other than salary, you need to take advantage of your programming skills, learn data collection and analysis, and do things that ordinary people can't do, or can only do with emotion, but you can do with data.

Tell Jack Ma that you can write a good operating system for Linux, and Jack Ma will give you a blank check and let you fill in the amount yourself
